Plamen Jeliazkov commented on HDFS-8921: ---------------------------------------- Yes, I am interested. I have a rough first patch. Would you help review it with me? I can confirm it caps over-utilized sources but we should consider whether we should cap above-average and the other possible sources as well. > Add an option to Balancer for specifying the k-most over-utilized DNs or all > over-utilized DNs as sources. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-8921 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8921 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: balancer & mover > Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze > > Arpit suggested to add a separate option to source from the most > over-utilized DataNodes first so the administrator does not have to pass the > source DNs manually; see [this > comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8826?focusedCommentId=14700576&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14700576]. > The new option could allow specifying the k-most over-utilized DNs or all > over-utilized DNs as sources. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
